This weeks tea leaves are pretty cloudy as far as game day inactives versus the Browns on Thursday night, because of the short week and injuries. Quarterback Charlie Batch will be the number 3 this week as he is at least healthy enough to hand the ball off in an emergency situation. Safety Troy Polamalu is out once again. Wide receiver Hines Ward and cornerback William Gay are both questionable and I really think on the short week that both will be held out. Rookie defensive end Ra\’Shon Harris will likely remain on the inactive list and defensive end Nick Eason likely will return to the list with defensive end Travis Kirschke returning from injury. Offensive linemen Tony Hills and Kraig Urbik should find their weekly spot as inactives to round out the list.
Check back here for the OFFICIAL LIST 90 minutes before game time.
